"An invitation?" Chen Feng gently kneaded the envelope in his hand. The paper was not made of any particularly rare material, but the sender's identity was somewhat surprising.

Signed: Hong Jiuling.

This person was none other than the leader of the conservative faction, controlling most of the power in East Bridge, even Mr. Fang and Li Chiyu served under his command.

Chen Feng had just returned downstairs when his subordinate handed him a letter. Who would have expected it was an invitation from the conservative faction?

After handing the letter to Chen Feng, the subordinate mentioned that aside from the paper letter, a young lady had come along with it, and she hadn't descended since going upstairs.

"What does this mean? I've killed people from the conservative faction and even snatched the Thunder Prison Dragon Lion, so you could say there's already a grudge between us. Yet, in the lines of the letter, there's no rebuke or anger, rather it shows appreciation, wanting to invite me to a banquet three days from now, and even sending me a woman."

For those in power, subordinates are nothing more than pieces on a chessboard. Although I killed Zhang Luoyu, he was just an insignificant pawn that the conservative faction wouldn't care about.

Chen Feng is not a backgroundless wanderer nor one of those survivors struggling for survival. He stands alone, having established Order, which is an equally formidable force not to be underestimated.

A few days ago, when meeting with Zhang Xueyuan, the other party clearly reported my strength upwards, causing unease with the Inferior Demon and the Undead Mage. This time, hard tactics aren't working, so they've switched to soft methods.

"Hong Jiuling..." Chen Feng slowly walked upstairs.

This person is not an ordinary character. Although he is just a normal person, he controls most of the power in East Bridge, and has tamed many professionals to obey him. Such a person thinks through every decision thoroughly.

In the past, when the insect tide broke out, the city was completely lost. If I remember correctly, Hong Jiuling disappeared at that time. Logically speaking, with so many experts by his side, it shouldn't have happened.

But the situation was indeed like that; an influential figure mysteriously vanished, causing a huge stir back then.

"Although I've already chosen Xu Hongzhuang, nobody knows about our relationship. Now is the perfect time to fish in troubled waters." Thinking of this, Chen Feng has already made up his mind to attend the banquet and take a look at Hong Jiuling's true appearance. "Having figured everything out, Chen Feng decided to attend the banquet three days later."

"In this way..." Chen Feng started plotting in his mind.

Currently positioned in East Bridge, surrounded by various enemies, although protected by summoned beasts, he must remain vigilant and not become complacent.

Summon!

Last time, after killing the Earth-Boring Giant Worm, Chen Feng summoned the Headless Knight, thereby dissolving the contract between them. In this chaotic environment, he must increase his manpower.

And this is also why he asked Xu Hongzhuang for Silver Tier monsters, intending to use the flesh to summon new allies.

Lost in thought, Chen Feng slowly went upstairs.

However, halfway there, he saw scattered cloth pieces at the door, while the Inferior Demon was curled up tightly against his door.

The girl?

His subordinate mentioned that a girl had come along, but now upstairs, only the Inferior Demon was there; there was no sign of any other woman.

Could it be...

Chen Feng had some thoughts in his mind.

"Inferior Demon, what's with these clothes?" Chen Feng asked.

The Inferior Demon, upon hearing Chen Feng's return, had already become extremely excited but hadn't listened obediently; in rage, it killed Luo Yao, fearing Chen Feng's reprimand, that's why it hid in the corner.

At this time, hearing Chen Feng's call, it slowly walked forward, raising its head, and a somewhat charming voice suddenly sounded: "Chen Feng... is Lieutenant Chen there?"

This was clearly Luo Yao's voice.

The Inferior Demon used her way to tell Chen Feng where the young lady had gone.

Chen Feng gently rubbed his forehead, revealing a 'just as expected' expression.

However, he didn't say anything; the Inferior Demon is now his number one henchman, following him through thick and thin, solving countless problems for him. Although he hadn't even seen the woman face-to-face before she was swallowed by the Inferior Demon, Chen Feng knows better than anyone which is more important.

What can be done about such a thing?

Just pretend it didn't happen.

The poor Luo Yao couldn't have imagined, the great Hong Jiuling's captive would end up being seen as a minor pawn by Chen Feng, dead without anyone standing up for her.

Chen Feng walked forward, placed his hand on the Inferior Demon's head, and gently kneaded it, saying: "Clean up here, don't let it happen again."

The Inferior Demon nodded, cheerfully said, "Got it... the Inferior Demon knows..."

Through a period of evolution, the Inferior Demon's communication skills have improved rapidly, aside from some stuttering, there's no major issue.

Chen Feng no longer focused on this, he then opened the door and walked into the room.

Meanwhile, the Inferior Demon stood aside, its big eyes finally shifting away after Chen Feng's silhouette disappeared, first swallowing all the clothes on the floor into its body, then curled into a ball against the door.

"Legs... bad women have legs, Inferior Demon doesn't..."

"Inferior Demon also wants legs..."

Leaning against the door, the Inferior Demon gently rubbed its face against the tightly closed door and muttered in an extremely small voice.

The Inferior Demon has already acquired the ability to learn.

In the process of devouring lives, its consciousness gradually mixed in some odd things, such as the cold-bloodedness of a thug, the cunning of a merchant, the clinginess of a child, and a woman's love for beauty.

It absorbs useful things for its own use, then discards some dregs so that they don't affect its actions and behavior.

The Inferior Demon originally couldn't distinguish between beauty and ugliness.

But Luo Yao's previous words were like stones hitting the Inferior Demon's head, causing it to suddenly become enlightened.

"Ugly girl..."

"I possess the ability to transform, I can change into any appearance I want..."

"I will become your appearance, living beside my master in your place."

Luo Yao's previous words lingered in the Inferior Demon's belly, filling up her not-so-big brain.

"No one else... can take the master away..." The Inferior Demon used all its strength, seeming to want to change something, but under it was still a mud puddle, completely unchanged.

Slightly disappointed, its small mouth was puffed, a look of grievance appeared on its face; it had tried hard but still couldn't transform into the appearance it wanted.

A tear fell.

It even simulated a sad tear.

The Inferior Demon leaned against the door, looking somewhat dejected. It had grown tired of its ugly appearance, wanting to transform into the previous image of Luo Yao, a fair-skinned little girl, but reality had given it a rude awakening.

Perhaps from the start, it was a kind of extravagant hope.

Perhaps after crying to exhaustion, it quietly lay at the doorway.

Sleeping peacefully.

Dim light scattered over the Inferior Demon's body. At this moment, no one noticed that at the very bottom of its body, a thick mud gradually vanished, replaced by a human toe the size of a peanut.
